Simplified Runtime operation

Touch operation in Runtime
With WinCC V7.4, WinCC Runtime supports the usual gestures on a touch screen, for example:
● Change picture by swiping
● Zoom by dragging with two fingers (scaling)
● Open a shortcut menu with a long tap on an object or link
The WinCC controls feature a separate selection of gestures to support Control operation in
Runtime, for example:
● Move axes and trends with one or two fingers
● Scale trend views with two fingers
● Keep pressed to display tooltips
A detailed description of the gestures that can be used is available under:
● "Working with WinCC > Creating Process Pictures > Process Pictures in Runtime > Touch
Operation"
There you will also find a guide to configuring the two-hand operation of process pictures
on a multitouch screen.
Sorting system dialog "Favorites" in Runtime
You can re-sort the displayed process pictures as required using drag-and-drop.
If you have specified a language-dependent display name for a process picture, this name is
displayed in the system dialog.
Adjusting the size of the toolbar
You can change the size of the icons to facilitate operation in the toolbar of WinCC controls.
The "Key size in pixels" property allows a maximum magnification of ten times the original size
of 28 pixels.
